~*~

Twilight breaks, its cloak of gentle shadow unfurls. You, my stubborn Man, whispered my name once today. But the whisper did not last, and still you sleep. Your face is a pale shadow in the dusk, so I light the candle.

Fire suits you better than twilight’s silver and shade, and suddenly the gold in your hair shines. But, this is nothing next to the fire in your green eyes. My breath stills. I am undone. Your eyes glow, emerald ember-light, banked yet holding such warmth.

Reaching out, I weep, for my stubborn Man has returned to me.

My Boromir.

What a lovely, lush ending to a beautiful series. The love and care here is absolutely palpable. I especially love the contrast between twilight's silver and shade, and the fire's (and Boromir's) gold and light.

Gloriously done. My Boromir *sighs*

The stubborn Man,- oh lovely strength in that stubbornness, refusing Death. Gold glimmering in the darkness of Aragorn's dread. Beautiful.

The warmth between them echoed by the firelight - beautiful.

What a glorious ending and reunion.

I read all three drabbles together right now and am still stunned by the poetic depth you have created in so tight a format. Thank you for this gift *bows*

This set of drabbles is so incredibly beautiful.

Fire suits you better than twilight’s silver and shade
A gorgeous line among many.

Reading these 3 ... I tried to come up with some clever remark but quite frankly, I'm speechless.

Brilliant job. I am very moved by these 3 short pieces.

Your Aragorn has been so strong, has portrayed himself as strong, although the last lines of the preceding piece hint at what this has cost him and here, at last, he breaks, with joy, perhaps with terror at what has been so narrowly avoided and also because he can now that his beacon has returned to him. A fitting end to the build in intensity and tension. grand.

Beautifuly told, each word perfect. I loved reading these powerful, thoughtful drabbles.

"...banked yet holding such warmth." Marvellous.
